Objective:

This article analyzes the speeches of the FARC-EP guerrillas around the commemoration of their last anniversary in arms which took place between the 27th and the 28th of May, 2017 in the former Transition and Normalization Rural Zone (TNRZ) of Colinas (Guaviare).

Methodology:

Participant Observation during the commemoration and documentary analysis of the public statements that the organization presented in recent years about this anniversary were carried out.

Results:

The speeches spread about the last anniversary allow understanding the self-representation of the commemoration as part of unarmed rebel memories and the tension with the official speeches about the role of this guerrilla in the history of the country.

Conclusions:

Through these memories, the FARC-EP guerrillas tried to articulate their own account of peace that comes into tension with the predominant ways in which this organization has been represented.
